Javier Tebas, the president of La Liga, made a somewhat controversial statement when comparing Ansu Fati, from Barcelona, with the star and already established Kylian Mbappé, from Paris Saint-Germain. The president was forceful in revealing his preference for the young Spaniard.
The matter came up when Tebas was asked about the possible signing of Mbappé by Real Madrid. The meringues have already made it clear that they want to rely on the Frenchman after the end of his relationship with PSG, in June 2022.
“We always like to value players who don’t play in Spain. However, in my opinion, Ansu Fati is better than Mbappé,” Javier told Cope’s Great Match.
Ansu Fati is still recovering from a hamstring injury in his left leg and could be available to Xavi Hernández in three weeks.
Meanwhile, Barça is preparing for the derby against Espanyol, on the 20th, at 17:00 (GMT), valid for the Spanish Championship.
